Chapter 1320 A small episode in the process One

Wu Chen's tent is on a beach at the naval base in Rio de Janeiro, and he is reluctant to talk to a villa equipped with air conditioning and air freshening equipment, thinking that the atmosphere is too dull.

In addition to the core of the mercenary corps, he is accompanied by several supermodels, in addition to Adriana, Ambrosio and Giselle, as well as Isabel, Isabelle, Ana, Anna and Susanna, there are more beautiful women and a good atmosphere.

"Boss, according to your request, the Navy Command officially launched the mothballing nuclear submarine program, with the chief of staff specifically responsible for the work, and experts from the combat department, the joint meeting of captains and the technical department of the attack nuclear submarine force formed a joint assessment team to conduct a comprehensive review of all our nuclear submarines."

"But everyone feels very embarrassed in their hearts, these nuclear submarines made in the United States and the former Soviet Union, after comprehensive upgrading, have become high-performance nuclear submarines with modern and cutting-edge scientific and technological levels, the perfect crystallization of mercenary industrial technology, the hard work of hundreds of experts and more than 1,000 researchers, even the US Navy cannot do better than us."

"What needs to be retained at the moment are six Typhoon-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, one Triumph-class ballistic missile nuclear submarine, six Alpha-class attack nuclear submarines, fourteen Akula-class attack nuclear submarines, twelve Oscar-class cruise missile nuclear submarines, two Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarines, six Victor-class attack nuclear submarines, four Serra-class attack nuclear submarines, eight Virginia-class attack nuclear submarines and ten Ohio-class cruise missile nuclear submarines, adding up to sixty-nine."

"Forty Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines, five Delta-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, six Charlie-class cruise missile II nuclear submarines, twenty Yankee-class strategic missile nuclear submarines, three Yankee-class cruise missile nuclear submarines, one Yankee-class attack nuclear submarine and one Trafalgar-class attack nuclear submarine need to be considered for mothballing, a total of seventy-six nuclear submarines." Janis said in a difficult tone.

In fact, this is not all the nuclear submarines of the mercenary navy, the fifteen Deep Blue-class attack nuclear submarines, the fifteen Atlantis-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines and the fifteen Tsunami-class cruise missile nuclear submarines representing the technical achievements of the United States and the former Soviet Union nuclear submarines are not counted, because the manufacturing task has not been completed so far!

For example, the Papa-class cruise missile nuclear submarine in Wu Chen's collection belongs to a nuclear submarine used for special purposes, so it is not in the establishment of the Navy's nuclear submarine force, and it is expected that five strategic command nuclear submarines will be built, which is not counted.

"Theoretically speaking, as long as the nuclear submarine is maintained in place, even if it is in service for 50 years, there is no problem, and the development of modern science and technology can completely extend the life of the nuclear submarine, but the key problem is that we do not need so many nuclear submarines, and the annual maintenance cost is a huge astronomical amount, in fact, most of the nuclear submarines are idle now."

"Since we are reluctant to dismantle it, then completely seal it up, spend a sum of money to build a nuclear submarine storage base, and directly detach it from the seawater, and the construction cost is always less than the annual maintenance fund, right? Stopping the operation of the nuclear reactor and removing the fuel rods, removing sensitive and vulnerable electronic equipment, and dismantling key parts, and doing anti-rust treatment and vacuum treatment, so that even in a few decades, it can come in handy at critical moments. ”

"We actually know in our hearts that the vast majority of these nuclear submarines have completed their historical mission, representing the latest cutting-edge technology of nuclear submarines, are being manufactured in a steady stream, whether they can be used again, there is almost no suspense, at most 20 years, still have to be dismantled."

"I have decided to mothball the first batch of 20 Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines and 20 Yankee-class strategic missile nuclear submarines, which have been more than 20 years, and some are even close to 30 years, and there is really no need to continue to serve, and the Navy Command will find a suitable place to build a nuclear submarine mothballing base, and each will build a dry dock style warehouse, which can be parked and activated at any time, and the officers and men of these nuclear submarines will undertake the operation of new nuclear submarines." Wu Chen said.

Only the Russian government can do it after the collapse of the former Soviet Union, but Russia does not have the economic and technical strength of the mercenary corps, and the way of mothballing nuclear submarines is just to park in the port and idle, and it will naturally be scrapped after a long time.

The idea of reducing the number of nuclear submarines was brewing for a long time by Wu Chen, when the mercenary corps was first established, everything was lacking, everything was good, and the nuclear submarine was a big weapon, and it was even more red-eyed, in order to obtain this kind of resource, it can be described as unscrupulous, and the public relations expenses of Marcus at that time were like running water.

It was also these veterans created by the former Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War who propped up the underwater strike force of the mercenary corps, and no one could have imagined that it would be on such a scale in the end, not including the dozens of ships leased out!

"Our nuclear energy experts in the former Soviet Union have also tried their best to use the reactors of nuclear submarines to build movable power stations, which can provide continuous power supply as long as there is water, and for this reason, we have purchased 30 sets of well-preserved nuclear reactors from the Russian Navy, one set is only 10,000 US dollars, and we have also given away nuclear fuel rods that can be used for at least 100 years, which is equivalent to giving them away for nothing, and after the processing and maintenance of modern technology, it has brought great convenience to many of our work." Hunter said.

According to the speed of the British Royal Navy's mixed fleet, it will take at least half a month to enter the Brazilian waters, and at the moment the Argentine Army is fighting to the death with the British Army, and they are idle, so let's talk about the mercenary corps themselves.

With Wu Chen, the big boss, the final word, the matter of the nuclear submarine was solved, but Hunter used this topic to talk about the use of nuclear reactors, and everyone present actually knew that the drunkard did not mean to drink, but actually referred to the development of Arctic resources.

Governments all over the world have an endless demand for energy for their own development, and the huge oil and gas resources in the Arctic region have now entered the attention of all countries, and the General Staff has long begun to consider how to participate in this contest.

"This matter is a bit troublesome, our Golden Triangle Federation is congenitally deficient in the Arctic region, and there is no suitable foothold, although I have this appetite and am not afraid of being strutted to death, but the key point is not the mobile nuclear power plant, but how to find partners locally." Wu Chen said.
